THEN I WANT YOU TO KNOW! -- saturn x byriath.

please wait for byriath and saturn to post first! //

it had been some time coming, this celebration. he'd not been around this territory for too long but even he couldn't deny the bond between the guru byriath and his fellow clanmate, saturn. he'd seen the looks that the guru had given to saturn, he'd seen the tenderness in how they interacted. it had been less of a surprise and more of an acknowledgement when he'd been approached by the couple in front of his house. there had been a quiet and building excitement he'd observed in the two, the kinsella lord recognizing the giddiness and only having been able to smile for them. he knew the feeling of love all too well, he'd been swayed and held by it only for it to leave him high and dry, but this day, this celebration, was to cement the everlasting love that the immortal and mortal had for each other. he couldn't wish them ill for being in love or for how strong it was.

this day was long awaited, he'd remembered hearing from saturn after their proposal to byr was a success, the giddiness he was so wary of filling the recovering fae as he'd expressed his pleasure and well wishes to the couple. the giddiness was almost a curse, driving him to get up much sooner than he truly should have, but there were too many things to do. he was happy to help them set up the celebration for their wedding, perhaps living a bit of his own dreams as he worked his paws to the bones to prepare for this beautiful celebration. it was not without it's charms, his pads sore from needle pricks, mending and adjusting what he could of what was brought to him by the soon to be newlyweds, setting up garlands and crowns of flowers, of mixtures of rose, tulip, carnation and apple blossoms. he didn't know how many hours he'd put into this project, but the night before the wedding was planned to be held would be spent buried in an entirety of the flowers plucked from gardens and traded for.

the invitations and good news had been spread around the entirety of the coalition, adding some cheer to the heaviness of the recent kidnapping and attack that he had been the victim of. the group needed the warmth and happiness that came with the official union of the couple. the dawn of the day of celebration began with the fae lifting his head from his work, petals and pollen sticking to his fur and paws as the sound of chittering birds filled his ears, the early morning sun warming his fur. looking about the house he called his own, he would smile in a mild excitement, heart fluttering in his chest with a new sense of hope. it was a time for new beginnings. it was a time ... a time for everything to start over, for the future. he could almost imagine the new life to come to the land they called home, for the new lovers to appear. this could only be good. it could only be greater than what it was.

taking a breath as he set down the last garland of tulips and roses that he had crafted, a sense of contentment spilling from him as he stood to his paws and slowly stepped from his home onto the small porch surrounding it, watching the brightening sky with delight. yawning and stretching, he would turn back indoors to collect the garlands and crowns, leaving them in baskets by the door of his home, tail slowly wagging as he picked up the decorations he'd helped to make for the happy couple's wedding. he still couldn't believe that he'd been asked to officiate the wedding, that had been a surprise, more so than their announcement of marriage. what did he know about weddings? he didn't know all that much, but he was skilled with flowers at the least among other things. he'd coached the couple through what he knew of weddings, reminiscent of his own to the one he didn't speak about. but this? this was a happy marriage.

heading off in the direction of the wedding that saturn had told him off, he smiled at the sight of the slowly awakening village, waving his tail in greeting to those that came up to him, agreed upon paws coming to help him set up the revenue to the meadow that the marriage would be carried out within. he was excited for the couple, and for the group to see the union between them. the unification of two individuals was always exciting, and he could feel it in the air, the joyous attitude that they somehow managed to keep as they all rushed about. he watched with satisfaction as he directed clanmates with the power of earth to grow two tall and beautiful birch trees that twined together to form a beautiful arch over an amethyst boulder at the edge of the meadow, where they had agreed to have their vows spoken. watching the flowing field of flowers, he smiled widely as he helped his clanmates begin to decorate the clearing with the decorations that he'd created with their aid. he knew that the wedding itself was to be held at dusk, but the preparations alone would take most of the day. he could only nod to those who departed to help both parts of the wedding party, directing others to work on the food that would be used to feed the celebrators that evening, directing others to search for drinks of the alcoholic kind and to create juices among other things.

the day passed in a blur, setting up the last of what he needed to have done before the ceremony of vows. by the time that the sun had begun it's descent towards the horizon, jasper spent the last few moments freeing some fireflies that had been captured in jars while having strung up the reset of their brethren amongst the flower garlands. the meadow was a beautiful sight, nearly heavenly in honesty, a perfect place for the couple to take their vows. headed back to town, jasper would take a deep breath, nodding to everyone he saw, spreading news of where to gather before coming to the frozen fountain that marked their home, shouting to the coalition, "come my friends! tonight is the long-awaited celebration of the union of our guru byriath and his dearly beloved partner saturn! come with me to a meadow of mythic beauty to celebrate their joyous marriage! join me in congratulating them!", he would howl before waiting for the wanderers to gather around him, leading the first to respond towards the meadow that had been set up for the wedding to be. he would have everyone settled by the time that saturn and byriath emerged to observe the wedding of the year, perhaps, of the century? he would sit himself at the amethyst boulder with a kind smile upon his face, looking to the cushion resting upon the boulder where two slender chains sat with rings held upon their coils. how beautiful this celebration truly would be ...
